#wisprflow

@torek@snabelen.no I use it pretty much 90% of the time now, but it took me a while to be able to dictate to the computer without tripping up. That is so weird because I could talk to a human being ad nauseam without tripping up, but as soon as I started talking to the computer, I tripped over my words. The cool thing about #WisprFlow is that it fixes all of that. It doesn't give you a direct one-to-one transcription. It gives you what you were meaning to say.

I should probably write a blog post about this too. I should probably also mention that I'm writing this #toot with #WisprFlow.

This weekend, my trial of #WisprFlow ended, and I got back on my system and decided I wanted to use it without Wispr Flow to see if I missed it. Exactly 12 minutes into a regular work session, I couldn't stand using it anymore, so I bought the pro version of Wispr Flow, which is actually really cheap anyway. You can get a 30-day trial with my referral link.

I've been using #WisprFlow for the past two weeks, and it's a game-changer. The only thing I wonder about is whether users accidentally leave it engaged and it picks up a conversation in the room and pastes it somewhere unexpected. This has happened to me a few times where the cursor wasn't where I expected, and it pasted into the wrong place. Note that this is an affiliate link if you are interested in checking this out. You'll get a free month of pro:

While I really like #WisprFlow, the biggest issue I have with it is that in the #iOS version you have to grant permission to use the microphone every time. I need to figure out how to get around this, but otherwise it's an awesome product.
